"I had the privilege of taking two of Dave's classes fairly recently and have applied what I learned to land a lead in an industrial video just recently! I found myself having to rely on improv skills and professionalism when my adult co-lead showed up extremely unprepared! I was completely prepared and managed to make a great impression on the producer and director as well as the client! " Olyvia B.

​​"I now have a greater understanding about commercial auditioning that has lifted my confidence tremendously. After training with you, I can pick up a piece of cold copy and deliver- and that is the best feeling! I would recommend private classes with you to anyone, whether they are a beginning actor or not. It certainly will give me a boost over other actors and I couldn't be more thrilled, or ready to get out there! Getting acting advice from a casting director is priceless." - Layla​

"I wanted to take the time to thank you for guiding me on the right path to get started again in this business. I learned a great deal from the platinum class with you and am now in the process of getting my reel together with original music to tie it together."- Cathy F.
